Chapter 5: The Dancing Girl of Paramount (4)

Feng Qiyue listened to the man speak French. At this time, although some people knew French, not many knew it. The reason why July knows French is because Feng Wanwan, who she protected before, is the heir of the Feng family, and she must learn the ancient language, which is the inheritance of this great family, and French is one of them.

"Hello, sir, is there anything you can help with?" asked July in French.

"Oh my God, at last someone can communicate with me. The man looked at July in surprise and was about to hug July.

July turned sideways and avoided the past, hugging foreigners on the street, and had a bad reputation.

"Are you in trouble, sir?" said July, after dodging the other's bear hugs.

The man was disappointed, and then thought that the Chinese women he had heard were very shy, so he smiled apologetically and said helplessly, "I didn't wait for the person who came to pick me up after I got off the boat, so I got into this person's car and asked him to take me to the Banque de France, who knew that he brought me here." He couldn't understand what I said to him. Oh my God, if I hadn't met a beautiful lady, I would probably have been sleeping on the streets. The man shrugged his shoulders a little mischievously.

July told the coachman where he was going, and it dawned on him. Because the foreigner was generous, so he learned a little English, and waited for work at the dock, who knew that he couldn't understand a word of today's foreigner's words, but seeing that the man was well-dressed, he didn't want to lose this job, so he pretended to understand and pulled him here.

"You get in his car and he'll drop you off at the Banque de France. July said to the man.

"Beautiful young lady, my name is James, can I get to know you? I must let my friends in France meet you, and convince them that there are angels in this world. James blocked July's way out, and then looked at July with affection on his face.

July was embarrassed, she had indeed heard that the French liked romance, but it was too romantic, and she would become an angel if she showed her the way.

"Sorry sir, I have a hurry, it's just a small thing, it's not a big deal. July waved down James' request and then wanted to bypass James and leave.

"Miss, will you tell me your name?" James reluctantly called July.

"My name is Kylo. July casually gave himself a foreign name, then said goodbye to James and left.

"She's really beautiful, isn't she? I came to China right, I didn't expect to meet my guardian angel. James looked at the back of July leaving, and said to the coachman who had been waiting for him next to him, clutching his chest.

The coachman rolled his eyes, not understanding.

Paramount is one of the largest dance halls, and it is newly opened, both in terms of decoration and the number of bands and dancers in Shanghai. But it also means that the competition is fierce.

In July, you can hear the sound of jazz bands playing outside from afar, and a band in a general dance hall can support the venue, but Paramount has invited several of them, and even a team plays in front of the door in the evening.

July entered the lounge through the back door, and it was not yet time to go to work, and many dancers were touching up their makeup at the dressing table in the lounge. Other girls who were singing and dancing were changing their clothes.

"Min'er, are you feeling better?" Seeing Feng Qiyue, Anna squeezed over.

"It's been two days off, it's all right!" July nodded at Anna.

"Why did you come here dressed like this, but it looks good!" Anna saw July's dress at this time, and felt fresh, she had never been to school, but seeing the female students wearing it like this, she pulled July to look hard.

"Oh, by the way, since you're here, you have to go and talk to Taipan first, he asked about you yesterday!" Anna suddenly thought of this, and then pulled July and ran out.

Paramount's Taipan's surname is Zheng, and the guests call him Ah Zheng, a small man in his thirties, who is famous for his clever mouth and shrewd face. The dance hall Taipan is similar to the dancer's agent, and the introduction of guests is under the management of the Taipan. Ah Zheng was dug up by the owner of Paramount at a great price, and he is very familiar with Shanghai's three religions and nine streams, and he can remember the license plate number casually, and he knows the preferences of each guest very clearly.

Seeing Anna pulling July to apologize, Zheng Daban waved his hand indifferently, the first of Zheng Daban's life guidelines is not to offend people to death, you can't say who can be developed on the beach, maybe he was still a bag a few days ago, and he will become the boss in a few days.

"Okay, okay, just pay attention next time, I don't mean you, the guests who come here to dance are just to have fun, if you always do this, I can't help you even if I have three heads and six arms." As soon as Zheng Daban finished speaking, a person ran over to him.

"Alright, you two go back!" he had something to do, so he sent Anna and July away.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

"The manager said that the piano player can't come today, so let you find someone to top. "The man who came was running out of breath, and now he was about to open the door, but he caught up with such an incident.

"Where can I find this? Now those foreign schools are out of school! I can't borrow it from other dance halls! Everyone uses this point!" Zheng Daban almost couldn't get up in one breath, isn't it embarrassing?

"Zheng Daban, I can try. "I didn't go far in July, so I heard it, and my heart moved, so I came forward and recommended myself.

Although she can't play the piano, the original owner Li Min'er can play! Li Min'er is also a fool, when she was a child, her family was good, and her father loved her very much, so the church school she went to was very good, she not only knew English, but also could play the piano. Later, after her father died, Li's mother was a person who couldn't live, and the family's savings were cheated away by Li Min'er's uncle, so she could only be a dancer to support her family. Although she knows foreign languages and piano, she has never said it, for fear of discrediting her school, and July doesn't want to waste such good conditions to dance and make money.

"Will you?" Zheng Daban looked at July with suspicion, in this era, there are not many people who can play the piano even in Shanghai, Li Min'er has always been tepid among the dancers, she has a beautiful face, but her temperament is that she can't beat a fart with eight sticks, and you are anxious when you look at her.

"Well, I used to be a student at St. Mary's School and went to high school all the way up. July deliberately lowered his head, looking sad.

Zheng Daban felt pitiful, there were no poor people who could go to that school since he was a child, it seemed that his family was in trouble, so he asked again, "Then you will definitely speak a foreign language?"

"Well, English, French, I know. "Actually, there are more than these two in July, but it is too suspicious to know too much, and it is rare to be able to speak two foreign languages now.
